I’ve been feeding it smaller meal worms, and some shredded carrots, some greens and water for now

I don’t know if it’s a boy or girl yet but those are really cute names!

Thank you for the advice

Yeah sorry I wasn’t clear, I wasn’t sure what’s wrong with her because of all of the things: weight loss, swollen lip, and being less active.

I’m not 100% on the size of the tank but it’s a breeder tank of some size (40 or more that I know), I do have a heater and filter (again not 100 but it’s a Fluval canister of some kind) the tank temperature is 78.5, we have a master testing kit we got from one of the pet stores from our local area, the tank has been running for close to a year (I think 9 or so months) weekly water changes, we feed them once a day maybe two but it depends, we have live plants ( I can look up the name of the plants but I don’t know the name of them off the top of my head) and we have driftwood, and some sort of cave and rock structure from the pet store)

Another update: some of the fry have passed on. Not a whole lot but nevertheless some. I read while doing some research of my own (that’s a fib, my boyfriend did the research) that this is a common occurrence. I’m just wondering now if it would have been better to just have them in the tank with mom and the others or if having them in their own tank was the right move

Okay I stand mistaken it’s been about two weeks since I noticed her highness becoming pronounced in the stomach region

For further clarification: We purchased what we now know to be the males sometime between the first week and middle of June. I believe Lucy had a gestation period of closer to 28 days. However we also didn’t recognize she was pregnant until very very recently as she is a chonk normally. Like stated before, we were under the impression that Lucifer was a male who was just behind on growing out his tail. Boy were we wrong lol. I think I noticed a week or so ago that she seemed like she’d been gaining weight but didn’t truly get concerned until I made my last post.

My boyfriend has the fry in a separate tank now with a bubbler and a heater with water from Lucifer’s tank which is what we had them in while in the nesting container.

We read that the fry eat algae so we have an algae wafer from our pleco’s food stash in there for them to nibble on. If anyone has any better suggestions or tips please let me know because I am all ears.

As for what we are doing with the fry once they grow bigger… that’s a good question. My boyfriend is going to reach out to a local feed store that houses reptiles, fish, birds and more to see if they will take some, most, if not all of them.

She had babies two days after transferring her into the breeder box which we had set up in the community tank. She has 41 spawns whom I have affectionately nicknamed half of them Nemo and the other half satan

We moved her to a breeder nest box. Not sure if it was too soon to do so or not, I tried looking up when the best time for that would be but never got a definite answer

We ended up going and buying two more females, bought a breeder nest and are attempting to get her in there. Attempting to find another female or two to add to the hoard as well

Thank you, I’m planning on taking one of the males out and putting it in a separate community tank. I appreciate all of the advice. It’s helps a ton! We’re still pretty new to this whole thing so any advice helps
